Drone commander suspended over drone dispatch to N.K. allegedly linked to martial law
“The investigation team suspects Yoon gave direct orders to the drone commander in October last year to dispatch drones to North Korea without reporting to the defense ministry or the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS), aiming to provoke military provocations from North Korea to allegedly justify the martial law imposition.”
“A special counsel team led by Cho Eun-suk filed for the warrant for Kim, who has been in custody, on charges that include forging official documents.”
“The Seoul Central District Court, however, rejected the [arrest] warrant request Monday, noting a detention would excessively restrict his defense rights.”
